The primary interior label states the instrument is a Stradivarius copy Made in USA, Model CE42, serial #72686; a secondary label states it was adjusted at the Glaesel shop in Cleveland, Ohio, 8/91. The instrument comes with a rosewood bow, new D'Addario Prelude A, D, and C strings, and a new, heavily padded gig bag.

Finish losses along the extremities from normal use; bridge needs to be placed, but the cello otherwise appears ready to play; the bow will need to be re-haired.
